What's Washington TRU Solutions reputation for quick layoff for VE personnel?

Just laid-off a bunch of folks at Hanford, I heard some of them had not been employed 90 days yet, and had relocated to WA. I was offered something at Idaho, but scared of them pulling the same trick.

Hanford is still waiting for certification from CCP so there was probably someone who said "Get rid of these extras until we have work to do."

Idaho is steady working on the WIPP project, so it is unlikely. But in this business, nothing is guaranteed.

I'm not certain of the reputation for quick layoff, guess I should have done my research before moving my family here. Does it hurt financially? You better believe it does!

If you plan on going to Idaho, and in particular AMWTP, understand that the likelyhood of getting any overtime there is null, with the union on board now and the house techs get called on an over time list and the contractors are not on it. So contractor be ware.

I recently was told the lay offs were for insufficient TRU waste production
